That's odd since the Help built in to DW states $ is end of line

I was used to using \1 but in the DW help it says...
"Use parentheses to set off groupings within the regular _expression_ to be referred to later. Then use $1, $2, $3, and so on in the Replace With field to refer to the first, second, third, and later parenthetical groupings.
"Note: In the Search For text box, to refer to a parenthetical grouping earlier in the regular _expression_, use \1, \2, \3, and so on instead of $1, $2, $3.
I'm actually stalling on the Find portion even before I actually try to replace anything.

Yes that is what I wanted. I have a stack of column text I want to wrap in the before and after strings in my example. DW lets you find and replace line by line so I was going to step forward 20-30 lines then cancel.
